Looks alright that. The Trophy bits make a lot of difference to the looks.

Bit of a random time of year to buy a convertible though

True,

But if its the same lump as the elise, you maybe looking at dong it twice a year...does it carry the same hardened crank?

A mate of mine had oil starvation in an exige and walked away with a 3.5k bill.

Obv not good news

the head problems are because of the dowels used to locate the head are plastic from the factory and these warp and let the head move

i beleive it dose have the hardened crank as mine is a 160bhp vvc
